What is Your Path? Asatru / Heathen

About Me I'm a deeply spiritual person in a Joseph Campbell sense, not a Jerry Falwell sense. I'm very much into the revival of pagan/paganism, specifically the Germanic Heathen religion. I watch the History Channel and History International religiously. I like to go to the beach or fishing. As far as nightlife goes I love chillin in Ybor City, Channelside or Hyde Park. Sunday afternoons at New World Brewery. I like caring for my chihuahua Angel. I teach History and I love confusing kids by asking them to identify places such as the "State of Confusion" or the "Nation of Islam." I like to rock out to bands like DRI, Dead Kennedys, Black Flag, and Agnostic Front. I can also boogie to some blues or Irish folk.
